She landed in the United States at the age of seventeen where she quickly added Anglo pragmatism to the salad. She has raised three American sons. Her longtime partner, the Cuban writer Edmundo Desnoes, died in 2023.Always startling, her ability to navigate different cultures has opened bright and dark doors. Her novel ""Passing Through Havana"" examines the multicultural experience as propelled by love and war. Subsequent writing has dealt with the cataclysm of modernity and dislocation.Rosshandler has worked for the international press, including Tokyo Shimbun, Paris Match and LIFE Español.
